Thursday

Good morning to you.  It's not so cold this morning, thankfully, but it's not expected to be as sunny as yesterday either.  A shame.  However, a moderate breeze should see the rest of my washing dried enough to iron and air so that's OK.

Reliable Jeff turned up to give my garden another little haircut so now it's looking neat and tidy again.  I do love it when the bulbs start coming up; the snowdrops are doing well and there's lots of intriguing little spikes peeping through the soil.  I don't have a great variety - just snowdrops, hyacinths and daffs of various kinds as well as tulips )a few) and bluebells later on.  Oh, and a tiny little clump of scillas which come up year after year and never seem to spread.  I hope they come up again - they are such tiny, shy little things and such a glorious blue.

Later on, I had a most enjoyable hour or so chatting to Christine over a cuppa and some knitting, catching up on all her news and sharing mine.

Then I did housework, etc, until it was time for governors' meeting which was quite interesting, well worth the time.  For obvious reasons, I can't talk about the contents, but I do think we make a difference, we're not just yes-men.  We have six meeting a year (every other half term) plus the visits to school for various reasons and purposes.

Today I have a great stack of ironing to get sorted, some washing in the machine to hang out and a spare bedroom to sort out and get ready for the next visitor, whoever that will be.
There's one tuition session and then pottery - cheers!  Must sort out my pottery bag - I think the tools and equipment needs to be shared amongst two bags as it can be hard to find stuff.

Wishing us all a happy Thursday.  xx
